Over 30 themes and 300 color palettes
Presenting over 30 themes and 300 color palettes put together by an expert in color for interior design, Annie Sloan's Color Schemes For Every Room is filled from cover to cover with full color photography showcasing expertly arranged settings according to each of the 30 main color themes, enabling the reader to conceptualize what a Manhattan-color style bedroom or an African Visions-color style kitchen looks like. Very highly recommended for painters, interior decorators, and the cliental who to hire them, Annie Sloan's Color Schemes For Every Room is informative and fun to page through before selecting a favored color scheme.

Not good enough for soft and simply deco.
I am quite disappointed with this book. Most colors used in the book are quite vivid and heavy. I have trouble finding the demonstration of nice and soft pastel colors. Also there isn't enough simply yet elegant themes.

But it actually deserve a 3.5 if I could rate it that way. It has two pictures of real room for each theme and many color palette to show various combinations of main, accent and complementary colors.

Take the guesswork out of decorating
This book is fantastic. It helped me choose just the right wall colors for my rooms. I had an idea of a color family to use but this book really helped me decide what shade to choose. It also suggested possibilities I never would have thought of. After you are done painting, you'll want to keep this book for future reference in years to come.
